Ammo in an Actor's Gear Tab should be thought of as loose rounds or boxed ammo, not ready to be used in a particular weapon. Each Weapon has an internal inventory, the Weapon's Ammo Tab, reflecting what's loaded into clips ready for use with that specific weapon.

As of SR5 v0.20.0, switching Ammo types in a Weapon is somewhat of a manual process. In effect, you have to unload the weapon manually before switching ammo types and reloading.

On the Weapon Item's Weapon Tab, zero out the ammo but remember how many rounds were left.
On the Weapon Item's Ammo Tab, edit the Ammo Item and add the removed quantity back to the weapon's inventory.
On the Weapon Item's Ammo Tab, select the new ammo type.
On the Actor's Actor's Gear Tab, click Reload (X/Y) on the weapon.

This will update the ammo quantity in the weapon and deduct it from the weapon's inventory.
